[Gmsh] Thin walls (baffles) inside volume with Gmsh

styleworker · November 15, 2012, 10:41

Hello,

I'm trying to implement baffles in my geometry in gmsh. If I run gmshToFoam without baffles, it works well. But if I implement the baffles, I'll get several warnings like (face 4=baffles):

--> FOAM Warning : Not using gmsh face 4(26644 3547 161 3530) since zero vertex is not on boundary of polyMesh

I've also tried to define each volume between the baffles, but I didn't help.

Does anybody have an idea?

kind regards

I've solved the problem. For instructions, see miles_davis post: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post323464 (it works also for gmshToFoam)
